We have to spell certain words around our dogs. Words like walk. But I think they have figured out what we are spelling.

We can't say the words "ear" or "medicine". Either one, even used in normal conversation will send her to her kennel.

She loves the words "outside" or "ride".

Though she can't talk like a human, she has developed her own way of communicating, where I can understand what she wants.

We were duped into saying ‘KLAW’, then actually spelling out K L A W, before we realized that the dog was reacting to the word “go”.. lol!

Saw a show regarding this. Yes, they do understand words, but are masters at reading body language almost to the point of reading minds.
